Exactly a year ago I posted on this blog for the first time (Welcome!). It has been such a wonderful year and I have come so far since I first started. I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has supported my blog in the past year, from all the bloggers who gave me so much support in the beginning to all the authors and publishers who requested reviews and features.

One lovely person deserves a special mention - without Faye @ A Daydreamer's Thoughts giving me the push I needed to start this blog it might have never existed. There are too many other fantastic people to name them all but you know who you are :D

Over the pass year I have had almost 150,000 page views and got several thousand followers which is so much more than I ever expected. The year has been filled with amazing moments from getting to exclusively reveal the cover of Be With Me by J.Lynn, share an exclusive excerpt of Remy by Katy Evans and read so many fantastic books. Best of all was receiving an email from an author letting me know after I mentioned her book and how incredible it was a top agent decided to try it and is now representing the author and trying to sell the book to a large publisher :)

Here's crossing my fingers that things continue to go well this year. I am currently running a very short survey to see what people like / don't like so I can best run the blog this year. I would appreciate it if you could fill it out. You are entered to win a book of your choice if you do :P

To celebrate 1 year of Bookish Treasures I have a HUGE giveaway for you all. There ~80 prizes to be won including several amazing signed paperbacks and you don't want to miss out on some of these.

A massive thank you to all the publishers who donated prizes - Random House Children's Publishing UK, Mira Ink, Indigo, Bloomsbury, Entranced and J.Taylor publishing. Also thanks and hugs to each of the individual authors who donated a copy of their book.
